Proving Fault in Truck Accident Cases

Injuries from truck accidents can be severe and long-lasting, ranging from
broken bones to internal organ damage to traumatic brain injury. Under
Maryland’s comparable negligence rule, if the injured is found to
be any percentage at fault for the truck accident, they are prohibited
from recovering financial damages. At Wilson & Parlett, our personal
injury attorneys bring over 85 years of combined experience to prove fault,
always striving to secure a favorable outcome.

Common causes of an 18-wheeler and semi truck accidents include:

Truck driver fatigue/falling asleep at the wheel

Poor truck maintenance

Brake or steering failure

Unsafe load or unbalanced freight

Truck driver DUI

Trucker speeding or driving recklessly

Illegal lane changes

Unlike other
motor vehicle accidents, there are unique elements of truck accidents that provide different legal
challenges. In a truck accident, there are several parties that could
be held accountable, including the trucker himself, his supervisor, the
trucking company, and the truck manufacturer. Our team can carefully assess
the circumstances of your accident to determine which parties should be
held liable.
